I completed against a Maestro Turbo at Totb back in 2002. Andy Nicholls was the guys name he made 418bhp at Well lane in October 2002. Not really competitive against the Cosworths it walked his class . Not sure if he continued to develop that car or not after that. Was in the low 10's in a Rover by 2007.

Andy's Maestro was awesome.



It took him a long time to run a 9-second in the Rover 25 that replaced it, but he eventually did.

The tomcat hits 150 with just 240 bhp yours should be quicker than 155 with all that bhp unless you have geared it down?

Lovely car. Personally I would ditch the green window sticker, gives a very different message about the car IMO....I am 43 though.
